I truly enjoy designing for others.  A friend of mine is getting married in a little less than a year and as a creative outlet and with UNlaborious fervor I was on a mission to drum up a couple of save-the-date 4×6 postcards for her which of course was super fun for me!  We call it our “Something Blue”.

She gave me a little detail in what she was looking for:  Nautical, teal/turquoise and cobalt blue, something simple and direct.  She wasn’t sure what photo she was going  to use, as she is in the midst of looking for that RIGHT photographer for her most amazing, special day, so I used a snapshot that someone took of the two of them during their first few months of dating.  Totally appropriate.  It shows all that fire, that passion, the intensity of true love.

I came up with these different nautical Save-the-Dates for the newly engaged and posted them for grabs on our little Etsy shop*:

*I varied the names on the Save-the-Dates out of respect for privacy.

Definitely a great way to get those creative juices flowing.  Thanks to these lovebirds for giving me the opportunity to work on a fun project!

Looking for that particular something to make your favor your own? Drop in to our little Etsy shop with a quick click and let me customize your one-of-a-kind gift tags!

It’s the finishing touches of a fantastic time spent together that people carry home after your celebration. Be it your wedding, a party, First Communion, baby or bridal shower –as the host we all want our guests to take home a piece of the day’s affair as a token of our appreciation and a reminder of our special day.

For our wedding, My (now) husband and I knew right away wine would be our gift of choice to send home with our friends and families. I was trying to find the best way possible to tag our wedding celebration and was given numerous suggestions on how to decorate our favors. I sought out suggestions and received mostly the same ideas: a label on top of the existing wine with our names and date, but staggering with the apprehension of foregoing the integrity of the wine’s branding since many times people are hesitant to open an “unidentifiable” wine for consumption.

So…what’s a Bride to do?

Fun, vibrant photo favor gift tags!  That’s what!

These favor tags are great and so versatile –they can be tailored for EVERY type of event.  Just email us at artsquaredwonder [@] gmail.com or visit our little Etsy shop here to request your personalized favor tags from Designed by ArtSquaredWonder’s Etsy Shop

I scoured the internet, magazines and picked peoples brains like crazy to find what would fit our theme so perfectly.  It was a no brainer to figure out that I wanted to put a photo on the tag:  “Thank You for sharing in our Special Day!” on the white 2″ x 3.5 tags, but ultimately it wasn’t going to cut it.  I wanted something to pop!  I wanted the “WOW” factor when our guests sat down to see their favor at the reception.  And then it dawned on me– a picture with our names and date on the other side to fill the gap of the staunch white blank favor tag.  And VOILA! The final presentation:

This really added that extra personalization to the table.  A definite added bonus! I hope this helps when you are looking for that little something to add to your favors.  I’ll be glad to afford you the ease and simplicity when you are putting together your DIY wedding!
